On March 29, Bibb County Superior Court Judge Verda Colvin said she didn’t know the camera was rolling when she delivered a scolding speech to young at-risk teens. Colvin volunteers with Bibb County Sheriff’s Office’s “Consider the Consequences” class, a program that bluntly shows youth where their early lives in crime are likely headed.
She was speaking to some wayward kids in the program who were brought into her courtroom. Her passionate lecture about the harsh realities of their futures if they didn’t change clearly touched many of them.
